I Minored In Art History.

Hey Hey Hey Friends, Foes, Formaldehyde it's us. We are slow. At making this podcast but aren't we cute when we just post it on up outta nowhere? Skippers you should move along to about 25 mins in so you don't get irrationally angry about how long we take to get to the good stuff. And good it is my people. Neysa kicks us off with some short and sweet details about one sick bruh, Johannes Vermeer a guy from Delft, Netherlands who painted his home town a grand total of 36 times. You know Delft? The hottest place around. After this Jocelyn gets into the controversial contemporary glass artist Dale Chihuly. You like chandeliers? Because ho boy do we got some chandeliers for you. Tune in to hear us discuss these home boys and as always head to our insta for some reference pics from the episode. Live, Laugh, Lobotomy. ~ Jocelyn & Neysa

Why hello hello art friends and foes! We're back for the Holiday season dropping a hot one for your ears. In this episode we don't actually cover the art until about 45 mins in so be prepared for some wild takes. Jocelyn brings a sad update about one former security guard whose untimely death rolls into a hilarious joke. Neysa regales us with a feisty retelling of an exes betrayal. During the art portion Jocelyn covers some juicy tidbits about the abstract expressionist painter Frank Stella, while Neysa shits all over him. In her segment Neysa tells us all about a shocking art scam surrounding a group of abstract expressionists and a prominent New York Gallery. Enjoy and share the podcast love! As always follow us on the gram @iminoredinarthistorypod to see which paintings we're referring to!

Oh you know what time it IS! You want art history? We have some poorly delivered information for yah. Skip ahead to 23 minutes in for us to get to the first artist of this 1.5 hours episode, David Huggins! A man who painted his over 30+ years of experience as an alien stud. Things get wild, so buckle up. We move on to Neysa's boring old white man, John Singer Sargent a turn of the century portrait artist. Cool paintings, boring life though. Sprinkled into this episode the tangents abound and fair warning we can't help but follow the rabbit. What we really need the people to answer is do you remember Twinkies being banana flavored?

We know you're parched after such a long wait for the Hot Tea, but babies, it was worth the wait! We've gone from Neysa being stoked on a boy to being ready to crush him with her bare hands (ish). Jocelyn announces her and Mike's anniversary, as well as a funky impulsive thought that you'll wanna stick around until the end of the episode to hear!

Buried under all the goss, you'll learn a little about Japan's premier horror mangaka, Junji Ito (July 31, 1963 - present) and a lot more about French Rococo painter Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun (April 16, 1755 - March 30, 1842).

Strap in, it's a wild one.

Hello again! In this feast for your senses Jocelyn tells us all about her American artist Alex Katz and his totally not boring and highly admired works that Neysa definitely loves. Buckle your pants an extra notch for the interruptions in this tidbit. For her tale Neysa does an international scandal involving famous American forger Tony Tetro, James Stunt (former son-in-law of English billionaire Bernie Ecclestone) and one and only now King Charles III. As you know us two ladies LOVE a good scandal. As always leave a review on the gram @iminoredinarthistorypod on Apple, or Spotify. We kept it light on the personal tea for this one (I'm thinking of you 4.5 star reviewer). Happy Listening! 

Back again for our July episode! This time with a special guest; introducing Jocelyn's bf, Mike! After sharing some intimate details most of us would have chosen not to hear (except not us because we're freaks amirite) we dive right into the topic of the hour, propaganda art. Mike takes us all the way through from the overall concept to historical effects of propaganda in World War 1 and World War 2. (Instagram took down the nazi propaganda pics lol) Lots of laughs abound in this delightful part 1 to our 30 episode special. Head on over to part 2 where Jocelyn and Neysa take off on a plethora of tangents. Hold onto your hats! 

It's hot, hot for Episode 30. Mike hangs out staring lovingly at his beau as she gives us an informative rundown of color theory and how to properly use shade and tints. Also do babies know colors? And should they learn different ones? It's all here for you folks. Neysa is still raging steady about abortion rights as we all should. She touches on Paula Rego -arguably one of the few artists that accurately captures the turmoil of  pregnant people as they prepare for their abortion in a back alley clinic. If you or someone you know needs an abortion in a restricted state please go to www.abortionfinder.org.

We're late, again! Our lives are busy busy but we have another delicious episode for your ear holes full of our voices. Jocelyn brings it with a very odd and obscure tale of the painting "The Hands Resist Him" and it's quirky history on the internet. Neysa gives us a feminist icon, although she never wanted to be, Ana Mendieta. Jocelyn reveals a wonderful personal life twist that you probably weren't expecting, meanwhile trouble brews with Neysa and a certain roommate. We love all your support for the pod and apologize sincerely for slacking.
